Your website is down and Catlight crashes

Hello dear CatLight Team,

https://catlight.io/ is currently facing some problems.

Because of that Catlight application crashes when it tries to connect to www.catlight.io and receives a 522 error.

Log:

Thank you for your reply.
The problem with crashing Catlight when receiving a 522 error still remains.

Do you use any proxy server? Maybe it cached the server error and is returning it repeatedly.

Can you open both URLs in your web browser -  www.catlight.io  and just https://catlight.io ? Are they opened correctly? The first one is routed through CloudFlare.

The error in the stack trace relates to auto-updater. If you continue to experience this problem, send us %LocalAppData%\CatLight\SquirrelSetup.log to [email protected] and we will investigate further.

Sorry about the misleading sentence. Catlight ist not crashing at the moment anymore, because catlight.io is up again.

What I intended to say is that the Bug in Catlight still remains. So next time when the server is down or I have any issue with my network Catlight is going to crash.

Thanks for clarifying, we'll do some additional testing for this case.

Hi Friedrich,

We were able to reproduce this problem. It will be fixed in v2.0. More details at: http://catlight.helprace.com/i161-application-can-run-out-of-memory-and-crash-when-internet-connection-is-absent 

Our servers were offline for a couple of hours due to a Microsoft Azure problem. Everything should be back to normal now.
